Short hair, sunglasses, coat, this time Mei Yanfang is really eye-catching.
Liu Peiji's record cover mark brother shape designed for Mei Yanfang scattered the image of the gentle girl next door in the past, and a different and cool Mei Yanfang was born. Mei Yanfang's neutral dress also became the trend of the time, her versatile style, singing and dancing combination, energetic stage performance style set off a frenzy, the sensation seems to be no less than Li Yuchun's neutral style in 2005.
Jacky Cheung once jokingly said that if it were not for Mei Yanfang singing and dancing on the stage, she would not have to sing and dance so tired in order to cater to the market.
This album is "Like a Year of Flowing Water". The song of the same name, "Like the Year of Water Flow", was also born here, and was composed by Zheng Guojiang and Kitaro. At that time, Mei Yanfang was only 23 years old.
The song is the ending song of the movie "Like a Year of Flowing Water", which tells the story of a woman who has lived overseas and returned to the mainland to find her roots. The whole movie is real, unpretentious, flat and straightforward, without too many waves, just haunted by a faint and humorous sadness. After the end of the movie, the music of "Like Water Flowing Year" sounded, and I just wanted to sigh Mei Yanfang's magnetic voice, Zheng Guojiang's words and Ah Mei's voice fusion, making this song extremely moving.
After listening to the song, I suddenly felt that this film was complete, life is also like this, perhaps because of the pain, I know how to cherish the hard-won beauty, and the song sung by Anita is just like the beauty at the end of the play.
The lyricist Zheng Guojiang wrote about the creative experience and the story behind "Like Water Flowing Year" in "Zheng Guojiang's Words and Painting Life". He said there was originally a "nother version" of the word, and now what we hear is a "second version", adapted for the movie "Like a Year of Water".
He said: If you have seen the movie "Like Water Flowing Year", you will probably remember this scene, the heroine Gu Meihua and her ex-boyfriend who specially returned to her hometown to visit were lying on the roof. Gu Meihua is dressed as a modern urban girl, while her ex-boyfriend is still a countryman and has married a rural female teacher who is very simple in dress and appearance. The last three sentences are exactly the same as the current version, but placed in two different pictures, they have different feelings, different meanings and different realms, and the text is so wonderful and magical. In order to write this theme song, I watched this movie six times, and it was rare for director Yan Haoken to give me this convenience. Finally, the vast picture at the end of the movie touched me, and I decided to turn the pen sharply, writing about the heroine's feelings about the things that happened during the whole journey, her feelings for her ex-boyfriend, her feelings for her ex-boyfriend's wife, her feelings about the sudden changes in her career and her sister's troubles, and I put everything that happened on the shelf and get back on the road.
In this way, it is not difficult to see why this song is so successful, which is inseparable from Zheng Guojiang's words.
Wang Xiaobo said: "It seems that the flow of water is everything for a person, and the rest is all a moment of entertainment and misfortune." ”
Before I had not realized the truth of this sentence, today when I think about it, perhaps what Wang Xiaobo wants to express is that the memories that remain in the water-like years are the most real existence, and the rest is just a moment of entertainment and misfortune that is not worth mentioning.
